Let's stop wasting bandwidth with a flame war.  Any business
school course will clearly outline how IBM makes changes in
what is offered in order to "add value"  Regardless of
whether you believe this is a proper thing to do it is how
IBM makes tremendous amounts of money.  Let's not confuse
IBM with Berkeley, Inc, or the IEEE, and just get on with
making the machines, which many of us had no choice in
receiving, actually work in a useful fashion.
